Where Does Mold Grow?

Surfaces

Mold thrives on damp and porous surfaces, especially in areas with high humidity and poor ventilation. It commonly grows on drywall, wood, carpets, ceiling tiles, and insulation, feeding on organic materials like dust and cellulose. If left untreated, mold can weaken structures and spread rapidly throughout your property.

Air

Mold spores are microscopic and airborne, meaning they can travel through HVAC systems, vents, and even open windows. Poor indoor air circulation allows mold to spread from one room to another, increasing the risk of contamination. Using HEPA filtration, air purifiers, and humidity control can help minimize airborne mold particles.

Content

Mold doesn’t just affect walls and floors, it can also grow on furniture, clothing, books, and personal belongings. Items stored in damp basements, attics, or closets are especially vulnerable. If mold has settled into fabrics or porous materials, deep cleaning or content restoration may be necessary to salvage affected items.
